FAQs
Is this dress true to size?
The dress is designed for a petite fit. The wrap design allows for some adjustment, but we recommend checking your measurements against standard UK sizing.
Can I machine wash this velvet dress?
We recommend dry cleaning or professional care to preserve the velvet texture and color; machine washing may damage the delicate ruffle trim.
Does the waist tie come undone easily?
The tie-waist is designed to be fully adjustable. Ensure you use a firm knot to secure the fit throughout the day.
Is the material stretchy?
The velvet material used in this design is selected for its drape and elegance; it has a slight give but is not a high-stretch knit.
What shoes should I wear with this?
Heels are highly recommended to balance the maxi length, though elegant flats or dressy boots can also work depending on the formality of the event.
Troubleshooting
Dress appears wrinkled after storage
Hang in a steamy bathroom for a few minutes or use a garment steamer on low, keeping the nozzle a safe distance from the velvet.
Lint or dust on velvet surface
Use a specialized velvet brush or a clean, dry lint-free cloth to gently brush in the direction of the fabric pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your dress remains in top condition, proper care is essential for velvet garments.
- Storage: Hang the dress using velvet-friendly or padded hangers to prevent indentations in the fabric.
- Cleaning: Always check the inner garment label. Due to the velvet material, dry cleaning is often recommended to maintain the integrity of the nap and color.
- Travel: If packing for a trip, hang the dress immediately upon arrival to allow any natural creases from the wrap design to fall out.
- Handling: Avoid pulling or snagging the ruffle trim on jewelry or rough surfaces.
